You can convert to an installed multi-channel profile using Convert to Profile and pressing the advanced button.

The result will be a multichannel mode file embedded with the conversion profile.

The preview may or may not be accurate.

Hello, do you really want to work with a reduced set of tools? 

I would rather recommend to work in RGB, and preview the work with your chosen color mode using View / Proof colors (after setup in View/Proof Setup)

Better to work in RGB and convert at the end,

The very well respected GMGcolor have a plug in for EG that’s worth exploring.

I hope this helps

Photoshop functionality like Layers only works in grayscale, RGB, Lab and CMYK so far. 

Has your print provider provided you with an ICC Profile for their specific CMYKOGV-process?

Both, Photoshop and Illustrator allow to work ECG; On Photoshop trough Channels; On Ai y have templates with OGV swatches and when I need them to interact with CMYK objects, I simply tailor appeareances mising whatever I need.
